What I Learned in My English Class Essay

Throughout my time in Honors English, I have learned many valuable things. It is hard to learn new concepts in an English class, because it is a class that everyone has since starting school. The group of kids that I attend this class with are not easy to handle, and we often upset teachers with our rude and opinionated comments. Our English class has been geared toward opening up to others and finding ourselves. We have learned a lot about our peers and ourselves throughout this semester, and we

I am so very happy with my experience in taking English 102 with Mr. Kitchen. This course has strengthened my research, writing and presenting skills considerably. I feel that I am now better prepared for future classes and have better skills to re-enter the workforce. My research and writing skills have improved and expanded from where I was at before this course. The three skills I have improved mostly on because of taking English 102 are research, writing and presenting in front of a group

Since I was I child, I have been told that I will always need to know how to read and write. Ever since kindergarten, I have been taking English courses. Reading and writing has not been my favorite subject, but it is something that is required of me to know how to do.

The first way this class will help me

year in our English 1010 class, we covered many different genres and types of writing. We covered how to write personal narratives, how to respond to other students and other forms of writing, and how to professionally write essays. Briefly, we touched down on how to write argumentatively and were also required to create an infographic, wish was probably my favorite assignment. Although I never thought of myself as a strong writer, I believe that this class has greatly improved not only my writing skills

The course definitely changed the way I approached writing a paper. One day in lecture you quoted Ernest Hemmingway saying, “The first draft of anything is shit.” This changed the way I approached and wrote papers. I used to start papers the night before, barely look over them and making few changes. This course encouraged me to outline, write a rough draft and constantly review then finalization the paper. Peer review before this class I though was pointless because most student hardly pay attention

After this english class I am a new writer I am so much better of a writer before. This is a fact I learned basic grammar rules that are very necessary to writing. I actually really learned them, I think this is because I really care now. I have learned the rules in the past through many years of school. But it was not until now my first year of college, and actually wanting to change my life and my habits I built through all my life in school. The habits of just going to class because I have to just

I hate reading and writing I never show interesting and I thought it was boring and just slept the whole period. But taking English 096 in my first semester at Harold Washington has impacted my writing skills in a positive way. This class helped me to learn more the skills I needed to become a better writer I college and for my future. Professor Thomas helped me with my writing and showed me that I do not have to be a perfect writer to get my point across. Like every writer we have are weaknesses

this class I didn’t really know what to expect, and having a fragile background in English I was a bit concerned on how I would perform. Carrying over twenty years of discouragement stemming from my high school years, I thought I knew enough but came to the realization I didn’t. After a few weeks of settling in to class it felt like doors that I didn’t know how to open could be now opened and ignited my desire for more knowledge. For the first time in my life I was excited to learn English and

I have learned many things throughout the course of the term, including such things as: how to write an essay and how to improve on essays that I have already written, how to locate and composite better research through the use of numerous resources found at the campus library, the internet, and the “Common Sense” textbook, how to cite research, examples, and quotations properly within the contents of my research paper as well as document it accurately according to MLA standards. Through the exploration

I came into this semester with an idea. An idea of reading and writing more to expand a world of my own. Something I've learned during my time in my English and Creative Writing classes is that reading can open up a much larger gateway to the imagination than anything else can. This is the most I have ever read in this short of a time span; over seven books in roughly five months.
